People living near the White House will soon be able to visit an open-air farmers market located near the Executive Mansion. The first White House Farmers Market will run Thursday from Sept. 17 to Oct. 29 and offer fruits, veggies, baked goods and pasture raised meat and eggs produced by local vendors.
Fresh Farm Markets, a non-profit group and organizers of several markets in the Washington area, recently had a city permit approved to close a portion of Vermont Avenue Northwest to traffic for the first White House farmers market.
The White House Farmers Market is a continuum of First Lady Michelle Obama’s focus on local food and health.
